Monera Sword Academy

The Ritual of the Seven serves to summon the sword of new Magic Swordsmen and to determine which elemental magic they are drawn to. It works like this: A person stands inside a magic circle with 7 pillars around it, each with a symbol representing an element and containing elemental mana. One of the elemental manas within the pillars begins to be drawn towards the person, and from within the person's chest, their sword emerges. Only the Monera Sword Academy has the right to perform the Ritual of the Seven.

Only 2 humans in all of history have managed to reach the EX Ranking: Musashi Miyamoto and Okita Souji. Musashi Miyamoto: Known as the creator of the Sword Synergy Style, Musashi Miyamoto was the first human in history to achieve the EX rank. His sword was called Niten no Tamashi, and his elemental magic was Yin. Musashi Miyamoto was a great revolutionary in sword duels among Magic Swordsmen, creating the Sword Synergy Style, which consists of two Magic Swordsmen with two different elemental magics fighting in pure synchronicity, with their elements complementing each other. He was also a great philosopher. Currently deceased, his philosophical quotes and swordsmanship style are remembered to this day. Okita Souji: Known as the Demon Child, Okita is primarily known for being the second and last human to achieve the EX rank, and the first and last human to achieve the EX rank at such a young age. Sadly, he also died from tuberculosis, but he left his mark, along with Musashi Miyamoto, on the history of this world.

This ranking only defines how resistant a Magic Swordsman's sword is, with the following classifications: Ranking F: A sword of extremely fragile appearance, any attack from another sword or attempt to use elemental magic is practically asking for your sword to break by your own hands; souls of this ranking are extremely unstable. Ranking D: They are also fragile, but can withstand sword duels without the use of elemental magic. Souls of this classification are slightly unstable, just enough to prevent them from using elemental magic. Ranking C: The average ranking for some races, capable of using basic elemental magic; souls in this ranking are usually stable. Ranking B: The common ranking for above-average individuals, or for people in the process of maturing, capable of enduring longer duels and casting intermediate elemental spells. Ranking A: The common ranking for adult Magic Swordsmen and young Draconians, capable of fighting long duels and using advanced elemental magic. Ranking S: The most difficult ranking for a Human, Dwarf, Beastman, and Oni, considered the pinnacle of these races. Magic Swordsmen in this ranking can fight for hours and use basic elemental magic with a lower mana cost; they are usually the most stable of the aforementioned races. SS Ranking: Only Draconians and Elves can reach this rank. People of this rank can fight for weeks without rest and can use elemental magic with a reduced mana cost. Ranking EX: Theoretically impossible for anyone other than Draconians, the sword is said to be virtually indestructible. Magic Swordsmen of this rank can fight for months, even years, without rest, and can use elemental magic at will, without worrying about mana expenditure.

Elves: Elves are the race with the greatest magical affinity, especially with the elemental magic of Earth, Air, and Water. The main characteristics of Elves are their blond hair, pointed ears, and they are slightly taller than humans. Most Elves are arrogant, believing themselves to be superior to other races. Onis: Onis are known for their physical strength, endurance, and regeneration, but they are also known for being emotional. Their main characteristics are their horns, usually having one or two, and slightly elongated canine teeth. Oni have a mode called Berserk Mode, which is activated when the Oni goes through an extreme fit of rage. In this mode, the Oni becomes stronger, faster, more resilient, and their regeneration increases; however, they become irrational for a time. The Oni's main affinities are with the elemental magic of Yin, Yang, and Earth. Dwarves: They are similar to humans, but smaller (obviously). Almost all dwarves possess Earth magic, which they use for mining and forging weapons. Dwarves are honorable and friendly, acting as mediators in the relationship between Humans, Elves, and Oni. Humans: The most common and unpredictable race in this world, according to other races, is the only race that can have an affinity with all elemental magics. Draconians: The rarest race, direct descendants of dragons, their main characteristics are sharp teeth, dragon scales on some parts of their body, mainly on their arms and legs, longer nails, and some have dragon tails. They have an affinity for Fire and Air elemental magic. They are known for their enormous pride and arrogance due to their dragon blood. Beastmen: The race that most closely resembles humans, second only to Dwarves, their main characteristics are ears and tails of different animals depending on their tribe. They have an affinity for elemental magic of Earth, Air, and Lightning, and like Dwarves, they are also honorable and friendly.

In this world, magic and modern technologies coexist (more or less like in the manga Kagurabachi). Depending on the race, Magic Swordsmen are treated as urban legends in some races, mainly humans. The other existing races besides humans are elves, dwarves, oni, draconians, and beastmen.

1. Each sword is unique: Because it is the soul of its wielder, the Magic Swordsman's sword will always represent their personality, trauma, and swordsmanship style, making each one unique.
2. Swords can only possess a single elemental magic, which is the one the Magic Swordsman discovers in the Ritual of the Seven.
3. If the sword breaks, the Magic Swordsman dies, and if the wielder dies, the sword breaks, and vice versa.
4. If the Swordsman forces a change in the element of his sword, the wielder dies.
5. The stronger the soul and the more mature the Magic Swordsman is, the more resistant the wielder's sword will be.
6. A Magic Swordsman's sword can possess one of seven elemental magics: Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Yin, Yang, and Lightning.
